"Awesome guitar for an extremely awesome price!"

Feature:
The main problem that I found with this guitar is that the whammy bar will only allow you to dive-bomb (slam it down), and not get the pitch screaming up high. This is probably one of the main reasons why it isn't a $250 guitar.Everything else works great. The pickups are really nice as well.

Quality:
I would, without a doubt, play this guitar at any show because I know that nothing is going to go wrong with this guitar. I have had it for about 3 months now and it is still in the same quality as when I had recieved it! The finish it good looking, althought it will show very easily andy pick scratches, sweat marks, or fingerprints, due to the satin finish, just a little more than any other black guitar I have played.

Value:
This is the best guitar that I have played at this price, even compared to some other guitars that cost more!

Desirability:
The reason why I looked at this guitar is because of the look, then the value! As far as the sex appeal of this bad boy here, I absolutely love the look. The only thing that (in my opinion) beats this look, would either be the LTD F-200 and other guitars with that style, but for the most part, I love the looks of this axe!

Sound:
This guitar has the sound that I was looking for, primarily based on Metallica and other metal bands. The only problem I have experienced is that the sound has a little bit of a higher-pitched twang, mostly when palm-muting. That is the only reason why it is not at a 10.

Support:
I wouldn't know, I have had no problems with the item.....yet.....So I was nice and gave it a 10.

Overall:
I would only replace this guitar with another LTD or ESP model axe that had a reverse headstock, with a double-locking tremolo, because we all know that we want to take our notes higher than what the fretboard allows! ;) Definatly will stick to the ESP/LTD name brand!

"Only the best is cheap..."

Feature:
Has everything I need and want in a guitar plus a little extra. Came with a whammy bar and the store threw in a case as well.

Quality:
The quality is great. I would deffinately use it for a show. One thing that I didn't like was all the fingerprints that were left behind after just five minutes of play.

Value:
This guitar, in my opinion plays better then some other name brand guitars that are priced higher than it. My friend just bought a Fender Stratocaster and when we jam in his basement you can deffinately tell the difference between my guitar and his (mine being the better sounding guitar).

Desirability:
I've been told by many people that my guitar looks alot like Kirk Hammet's guitar and been asked if it is. I tell them no but it sounds jus as good. People really seem to like it.

Sound:
This guitar has without a doubt the best sound out of all my guitars. First time I plugged it in it just blew me away.

Ease of Use:
Easy to use and easy to get used to. Thought it would take a while to get a feel for it but it was the proper weight and hung just right to fit my playing style.

Support:
I realy haven't had a problem with it since I had it.

Overall:
I expect this guitar to last me many years or at least until I get a better one. I think in the future I'm going to see if the store I bought it from can replace the double ESP pickups with EMG pickups or just buy a Viper or something with the EMG pickups. This guitar totally made me happy in the way it met my expectations. I will deffinately tell my friends about these guitars.
